𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐒

𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬

Metal clanking and loud booming could be heard as guns were being packed and shipped.

Aang was currently walking through his weapon warehouse to check up on things and make sure they were running smoothly. Everything seemed to be in order and he was satisfied.

Although he was satisfied and fast at work he was also distracted. He couldn't get that mysterious woman off of his mind.

Who was she and what was her business with me.

What's her goal?

Is she after me???

All these things he couldn't help but question.

"MENG?!" he called out to his personal assistant.

Meng came running and out of breath, "Yes, Mr.Gray?" she panted.

"Did you get the pictures of the woman that I requested?"

"Yes sir."

"And did you run a background check on her."

"Yes sir."

"Very good. You can just hand me the file and go on lunch break."

"Thank you Mr.Gray." she blushed

As Meng walked away, Aang opened the file and started skimming his eye's over it.

Ok let's see. She goes by "the siren" but it says here that her real name is Katara Lakes.

And she's an assassin...

"Well i'll be damned"

𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞...

Running her hand through the front of her hair and adjusting her sunglasses, Katara laid in a beach chair beside her pool.

Sitting up slightly she watched as Suki slowly emerged from the pool. "So tell me more about your latest missions.", Suki started drying her hair with a towel.

"Well they've definitely been interesting...."said Katara, slightly biting her lip.

"Ok, elaborate." Suki pressed.

"I may or may not have run into a crime boss twice in a row....and danced with him."

"WHAT!!" Suki exclaimed. "Kat, that's crazy.....was he hot though?"

Her last comment caused Katara to bust out laughing. "Well he definitely wasn't terrible looking. But that's not the point."

"And why not?" Suki, quirking a brow.

"Because even if i do find him attractive, i'm not looking for a relationship right now."

"Awww Kat c'mon." Suki teased. "You have to get into the dating world someday."

"Ummm no i don't. I prefer to be a single badass who doesn't need to be run or controlled by an asshole."

"Kat, not all men are like that."

"Mhm sure they aren't. You're only saying that because you're dating my brother." Katara retorted, getting up and grabbing her things.

Suki slightly frowned at her friend's stubbornness but decided to leave her alone for now.

"I'll catch you later Suk's. Don't wait on me for dinner." Katara said lastly, leaving the area.

𝐊𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐀 𝐏𝐎𝐕

Katara was currently in the shower, washing her hair. But also couldn't keep her mind off what Suki said earlier. She also couldn't seem to shake the thought of that Aang Grayson guy.

Feeling that she was thinking on the subject for too long, she quickly shook herself from her thoughts and finished her shower.

After getting out of the shower and drying her hair, she put on a simple black tank top that slightly showed off her cleavage and paired it with some grey cargo pants along with some black doc marten boots.

Feeling that she was ready she grabbed everything she would need and made her way to her favorite small restaurant that she loved to eat dinner at.

Walking down the sidewalk next to the street, she felt chills. Like someone was watching her. But doing a quick scan of her surroundings she couldn't seem to spot anyone. Well anyone out of the ordinary that is.

Still feeling uneasy though she quickly made her way to the restaurant.

Finally arriving she walked up to the front podium to meet one of her favorite people. "Well hello there Katara, it's so nice to see one of my regulars come in. Especially after not seeing you for a while." Iroh greeted warmly.

"C'mon Iroh you know I can't stay away from this place. I've been just caught up in work lately and had to resort to take out. BUT of course take out would never equal up to your food."

Iroh lightly chuckled at her banter. "It's quite alright Katara, I don't expect you to be here ALL the time. I just missed you is all."

"Awww Iroh I missed you too." Katara replied smiling warmly.

Just as Katara was about to continue the light conversation she felt a large rumble from her stomach.

"I guess us catching up made me totally forget the reason I was here in the first place." Katara chuckled.

"Oh well that's alright. We'll have plenty of time to catch up later. But for now let's take care of that roaring stomach of yours."

Iroh was about to grab a menu and lead her to her usual table but was quickly stopped by Katara.

"Oh Iroh, you know I won't need a menu. I'll just get my usual."

Iroh nodded at this and just escorted her to her table. No to long after getting her a drink he left her alone to go prepare her food. Before she knew it her food was ready and she didn't hesitate to sink her teeth into her meal. Her meal being a medium well steak with a side of fries.

Quickly finishing her food she decided she would head to the bathroom before she headed home.

??? 𝐏𝐎𝐕

"I have my eyes on the target sir."

𝐊𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐀 𝐏𝐎𝐕

As I walked to the bathroom I couldn't help but feel like I was being watched again. But I did bring pepper spray with me just in case.

5 minutes later I had finished up my business and was just drying my hands under the blow dryer. The dryer itself was quite loud so i couldn't really hear anything around me other than the loud roar of the dryer.

And before I knew it....everything went black.

??? 𝐏𝐎𝐕

"I have secured the target sir and she is ready to be hauled into the truck."

"Good work Ty lee." Aang replied "bring her in as fast and carefully as you can."

"You got it boss."

𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝟑𝟎 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧...

Staying true to her bosses orders, Ty lee placed Katara in a room where she would be secure.

But she was still curious as to why her boss had wanted her to go after the skilled assassin in the first place

Ty lee soon approached her boss and decided to just ask him up front.

"Sir, if you don't mind me asking....what do you intend to do with her?"

cracking his knuckles he replied "I just want to have a little talk." and smirked as he made his way towards the room where the dangerous but unconscious woman resided.
